Mockingbird
Nicole and MJ Apr 2014
Mockingbird, in the tree,
will you spread your wings for me?
Will you sing and call and fly,
through the trees and to the sky,
soaring where none dare to go,
but the mockingbird happens to know,
the secrets to freedom,
the knowledge of life,
cutting the air,
sharp as a knife.
He closes his wings,
with their felt white tips,
as I put a finger to my lips.
The secrets and knowledge of life itself,
are better sought out by yourself,
but I will find out happily,
if you raise your wings for me.

Broken Love
Nicole and MJ Apr 2014
An ocean once so clear, blue, and deep;
A love once so strong and unforgettable, dies in the flames of the burning red fire, drowns in the rivers of nevermore.
A flower once so handsome;
A friendship once so royal, dies in the season of winter, drowns in the streams of betrayal.
A touch once so soft;
A kiss once so sweet, dies in the darkness of regret, drowns in the lakes of bitterness.

Winter
Nicole and MJ Apr 2014
All alone, and wondering, what will winter come and bring?
The cold, the sadness, the frostbitten air, the icy breeze flows in her hair.
Some are relieved, and they play in the snow, but they will stop once they know:
About the child that lay in the cold, wondering if she'll ever grow old.
The clothes she wears are nothing but rags.
Death will slowly start to nag.
It wants to hold her in it's hands, and wants to raise her, never to land.
It wants to end her suffering, not knowing the sorrow it will bring.
Death's cold dead heart will surely know, what lies buried in the snow.
The homeless child's frozen form, never again to feel the warmth; the rush of sunlight on her face, death had finally won the race, between it and life itself.
The child had surely never felt, the embrace of a loving mother, a father, sister, nor a brother, and never will, when it comes hither,
death's call itself, the dreadful winter.

Wonderland
Nicole and MJ Apr 2014
Come, come with me to wonderland, where it all began.
Come, come with me to the place where we had it all.
We had it all...
Won't you come with me to wonderland, come see once again, where it all began.
Wonderland, where it all began, wonderland, where we left our hearts.
Wonderland, where I was yours, wonderland, where you were mine.
Please come back to another life, another place, another time.
Come with me where I took your hand, come join me in wonderland.

— The End —
